How auto clock-in works

Walk onto the job and the clock starts. Here's what the app does, and what it doesn't.

Made for one person, not a crew

Most auto clock-in apps are built for a boss tracking a crew. This one is built for you. There's no manager dashboard, no crew map, and nobody watching where you go. It just keeps your own hours straight so you can bill them.

Set it up

Create a job and pin the job site. You can drop the pin at your current location or enter the site's GPS coordinates.
Turn on automatic clock-in and allow location in the background. The app needs that permission to notice when you arrive, even when it's closed.
If you only want it running during your working hours, set those hours and it stays quiet the rest of the time.

On the job

You arrive. Android's location services notice when your phone comes within about 150 meters of the pin, and the app clocks you in.
You leave. The app clocks you out if you turned that on. Otherwise it asks whether you want to clock out.
Something's off. Every punch can be edited, so a wrong time is a quick fix. Only work you've already billed is held.

What it keeps

The job-site pins and your clock-in and clock-out times.
A short log of arrive and leave events, kept on your phone, that you can choose to share with support if something doesn't trigger.
No continuous GPS history. The app doesn't record where you go between jobs.

Rather not use it?

You don't have to. Deny or revoke location permission in your phone's settings and clock in and out by hand. Everything else in the app works the same.

Once the hours are in, turn them into an invoice.
